The coast of Maine is roughly 230 miles as the black-capped chickadee flies. However, coastline paradox aside, you'd have to travel about 3,500 miles if you wanted to see every nook and cranny of the Pine Tree State's craggy coast. This glacier-formed coastline is full of beautiful bays, peninsulas, inlets, points, and islands. This jagged coastline creates a very intimate coastline with plenty of hidden gems.

However, the steady creep of gentrification and the cost of living in many American cities has driven the port facilities away.
